    Summary

    This was a prose poem I wrote for an assignment years ago. I'd secretly written it for Merlin and Arthur while being angsty about the finale. I found it again recently and realized it still worked for Merlin and how he thinks of himself.

    Imagine what it would be like, to be told someone you hate and who would kill you is your only path forward. Only when you adore him. When he shows he's good but still hates who you are and where you come from. Only then, do you realize that you aren't destined to be good. You can't be what you're supposed to be, you're the other side of him. If you were ever to meet face to face he'd know your gruesome truth. So instead you just... remain in longing.

    Death is the cruelest kindness. And you are his bane.
